lol @ them being drugged and hooking up

Asuka has already been shown to be very upset and uncomfortable with where her mind is going and what her body has started doing. She's already demonstrated that she's not a very assertive person. Obviously it's clear that she's super attached to mom. It's not such a stretch that her confusion and frustration about her personal matters, in addition to her general passiveness, are the things steering her into this unhealthy relationship with a rather predatory senpai and without much protest.

I think it's pretty clearly implied that Some Bad Shit Goes Down with her and this senpai, and it probably helps to contribute to her steering clear of "normal" relationships and fixating on the one "safe" one.

Super annoyed right now. My pharmacy is now putting a comically huge red warning sticker on the cap of my painkillers that states that opioids are addictive and can be overdosed with.

I mean, no shit Sherlock. Pretty sure anyone who takes the things is aware of that because it's constantly forced down our throats by doctors and society in general.

Newsflash: most people who are "victims of the opioid crisis" are NOT chronic pain patients like me that have been on this crap under a doctor's supervision for years. RAWR.

/rant end

I need to go find some yuri fluff to read to make myself feel better.

This just keeps getting more and more disturbing. Poor girl was utterly taken advantage of by senpai and had no idea what to do about it. Even if one could argue that she was motivated by hormones or blind-and-not-understood attraction, there's still a lot of obvious confusion and lack of "enthusiastic consent". Been a while since I've met a manga protag that realistically could so obviously benefit from therapy.

YESSSSS, I finally buckled down and read this from start to finish! The fremdschämen from the first chapters had been too much for me before but somehow I managed to power through. And now I can understand what everyone is talking about!

And yes, very wholesome chapter. I like Nemo's little wish, that was cute AF.

The biggest problem would be If you realise you have fellings for her but she's not into you like that

Been there, done that. Don't ever wanna do it again. lol

Same lel. I think almost every lesbian has been going through something like that at least once. D:

And it's horrible because we all KNOW BETTER. It's like the #1 rule in the Lesbian Handbook: "Don't fall for straight girls!" lol

They are probably twin sisters because they live in the same house, have the same birthday and have similar names.

I dunno about that. Page 5 shows one of them addressing the other one by last name instead of first name, and asking about the drawing like it was something new to learn about.

Can someone explain to me the Inuyasha reference ? I'm ashamed i didn't watch at all this one and really don't plan to.

Inuyasha is a half-demon who was very hostile to Kagome in the first episodes of the series, and pretty much the only reasons he didn't kill her right away is cause since he wears this thing called Beads of Subjugation (which he can't remove by himself) whenever Kagome says "sit" he gets slammed to the ground.
That collar Bazu's wearing is pretty reminiscent of that, so it makes sense people would make comparisons

Yup yup. Inuyasha was what got me into anime/manga almost 20 years ago. I even fansubbed and helped distro the episodes the old fashioned way (via IRC), lol.

Basically Kagome is the reincarnation of Inuyasha's old miko girlfriend, Kikyou, so that allows her to travel to the sengoku jidai through a well located on her property (she lives at a shrine). Once she arrives and endures some shenanigans, which include releasing Inuyasha from where he's pinned to a tree by Kikyou's magic miko arrow, she meets Kikyou's (now elderly) sister, who has had the time by then to prepare an enchanted necklace with which to subjugate Inuyasha and thus prevent him from rampaging like a giant jerk. Kaede slaps that around his neck and Kagome binds it to herself with the command "OSUWARI", which is basically the Japanese command to "sit" for a dog. It slams him to the ground regardless of what he's doing, and so thus keeps him in check--though it's mostly used for comedic effect. lol

Hahaha, the moment I saw that "collar" do it's chokeslam, I immediately got Inuyasha and Kagome vibes. I'ma look forward to our protag hollering "osuwari!".

Well see, that's the beauty of being a lesbian. Your parents don't realize that your "friend" is actually your lover. So you can be a little clingy, because you're friends, and girls are just like that with friends, right? You can sleep in the same bed, because oh gosh, such good friends! And of course, you get up to all kinds of shenanigans in your bedroom, especially after dark, and nobody would be the wiser, as long as you were careful to keep sounds to a minimum. :P

money on yuu being the top

My bet is that Touko will be under the false impression that Yuu wants more than just sleeping in the same bed until the very last moment.

I think she does want more than sleeping though

Yeah pretty much. She's been thinking of naughty things, that's what she's got on the brain lol

My thoughts, seeing Maekawa tsun-tsun her way through every interaction in this chapter:

what WHADASHAA means? :D?

It's just crazy nonsense she's hollerin' from the stress she's under, lol. Kinda like a verbal version of "!@#$%!$@#!%#$$!!!", more or less.

Ah, you're right. I get the order of things mixed up in my head sometimes since I'm nominally involved with all 3 releases and I deal with memory issues, lol.

They cut out the aftermath when Adachi leaves. We don't see Shimamura's thoughts or when she gets head-butted by her little sister.

It cut off at the same place Adachi Question ends in the novel.

Yeah. But they meant that the scene that happened after Adachi left--wherein Shimamura's sister comes in and sits between her knees, then headbutts her, and all the dialogue that happens at that point. It redacted all that and went immediately to Adachi's arrival at home after fleeing, and her "WHADASHAA" moment lol

I think it was made a little abrupt because Ratana is/has been working on a new Sci-Fi story, and I gather that she's more than just a little bit excited and absorbed in that. But it's not like we didn't know already that Ice and Ploy end up together despite their drama, the story literally begins with Ice reminiscing about how they ended up together, lol.

Bonus chapter for LL2 next week, and then after that it's really over. Kudos to Ratana for all her hard work, and to the Three Muskqueerteers for theirs!
